Job overview
The Economics & Business Department is one of the largest and most popular Departments in St Charles Catholic Sixth Form. All teachers within the department have degrees or postgraduate qualifications and it is a high performing subject area with positive outcomes for students at all levels.
The classrooms are equipped with IT provisions and are clustered in the same teaching blocks. The staff in the subject area collaborate on teaching and learning projects, creating innovate strategies for educating and inspiring our students.
The A Level & BTEC courses on offer are very popular and follow the Edexcel or Pearson specifications which allows the students to apply business and economic theory to real world scenarios such as; Brexit, the implications of Covid 19 on global commerce and market, Globalisation, Automation and the rise of AI and many more.
The department encourages students to broaden their understanding of the subject through debate, workshops and involving them in competitions. Last academic year, trips were arranged to go and see speakers at top London Universities, The Bank of England and other education visits and all students undertake work experience in Year 12.
The department works closely with several leading universities such as LSE, Goldsmiths and Royal Holloway who offer our students workshops and summer internships to develop higher order study skills and explore options for undergraduate study in the subject area.
As a strong enthusiastic team that is fully committed to maximising student potential, we are seeking to appoint a like-minded professional team player, who can contribute fully to the ongoing success of the department.
We try to match teaching timetables to the successful applicant’s particular areas of expertise and experience though given the range of the curriculum offer within the department flexibility and commitment to comprehensive provision is also important.
